GHOST a Virtual Machine

Filed under: Windows, Imaging

I am a user of VMWare, a software that speaks for itself. I want to use VMWare to create my base images for various tasks and hardware platforms. Today I will test this:

1) Add a new drive to a virtual machine 2) In the guest OS, format the disk (bigger than current c: drive) 3) Fire up GHOST32.exe within the guest OS. 4) Create an image of drive C: on the newly created/formatted drive D: 5) Move the image to a network location for depployment.

Sounds like it’ll work. I’ll post some results.
